CVE-2024-10713
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedA vulnerability in szad670401/hyperlpr v3.0 allows for a Denial of Service (DoS) attack. The server fails to handle excessive characters appended to the end of multipart boundaries, regardless of the character used. This flaw can be exploited by sending malformed multipart requests with arbitrary characters at the end of the boundary, leading to excessive resource consumption and a complete denial of service for all users. The vulnerability is unauthenticated, meaning no user login or interaction is required for an attacker to exploit this issue.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceA Denial of Service vulnerability exists in szad670401/hyperlpr v3.0's multipart request parsing logic. Attackers can send malformed HTTP multipart requests with arbitrary excessive characters appended to the boundary parameter. The server fails to properly validate or handle these malformed boundaries, causing excessive resource consumption (likely CPU spinning or memory exhaustion) that renders the service completely unavailable.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify if hyperlpr is running in your environmentLocate the szad670401/hyperlpr application process or service in your environment inventory or running processesAffected if The application is present and running as a service that handles HTTP requests
-
Determine the installed version of hyperlprCheck the version of the installed hyperlpr package or binary - compare against v3.0Affected if The version is exactly v3.0 or falls within the affected range based on v3.0
-
Verify if HTTP multipart request handling is enabledInspect the service configuration or code to determine if multipart request parsing is an active featureAffected if The service is configured to accept and parse HTTP multipart/form-data requests
-
Check if the service is exposed to untrusted HTTP clientsReview network exposure settings to see if the hyperlpr HTTP endpoint is reachable from external or untrusted sourcesAffected if The service is directly exposed to network traffic without a protective proxy
-
Inspect for WAF or request filtering in front of the serviceReview whether a WAF, reverse proxy, or API gateway with request validation is deployed before hyperlprAffected if No WAF or request size limiting proxy exists between the client and hyperlpr
You are affected if you are running hyperlpr v3.0 with HTTP multipart parsing enabled and exposed directly to network traffic without request validation or size limiting in place.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataImplement strict multipart boundary validation with length limits and character validation in the parsing logic. As an interim control, deploy a WAF or reverse proxy with request size limits and anomaly detection to filter malformed multipart requests.
